African-American children on way to PS204, 82nd Street and 15th Avenue, pass mothers protesting the busing of children to achieve integration. Racism consists of both prejudice and discrimination based in social perceptions of biological differences between peoples. Institutionalized racial segregation was ended as an official practice by the efforts of such civil rights activists as Clarence M. Mitchell, Jr., Rosa Parks, and Martin Luther King Jr., and the passage of the Voting Rights Act and the Civil Rights Act of 1964 supported by President Lyndon B. Johnson.
